  • Abstract
    Based on information theoretic principles, metrics for `super performance´ signal processing systems design are developed. Conventional super computer systems figures-of-merit in throughput measures, MFLOPS or GFLOPS, do not consider these basic metrics. The issue in the design of a signal processing system is efficiency rather than raw processing speed. The critical parameters to consider in designing a signal processing system are the available power and communications resources
